Game developer attempts to break into White House Press dinner and shoot people

Posted on by

UPDATE: The Manifesto of the shooter shows the effects of left wing TDS media laser painting on Trump. The motives are all based on fictions, much like all the other Trump attempted assassins.

First, the event:

So I think this makes it 5 times an attempt has been made on President Trump’s life via firearms assassination.

Not much is known about this event, or at least made public yet. But the perp was a part time teacher and game developer. And this was an astonishingly poorly executed plan, (Thank God almighty) to run into one of the highest security zones on Earth and try and shoot major protected target(s). Which makes you wonder how crappy his games must have been,

Grok offers this:

Here’s what is known so far about the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner (WHCD) last night (Saturday, April 25, 2026) at the Washington Hilton:Key Facts

  • What happened: Gunshots were heard inside/around the ballroom during the dinner. President Trump, Melania Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and other senior officials were quickly evacuated by Secret Service. Attendees ducked under tables.
  • The shooter opened fire on security personnel (reportedly at a checkpoint or in a foyer/lobby area outside the main ballroom). He was armed with a shotgun, additional guns, and multiple knives.
  • No deaths or serious injuries reported among guests or the president’s party. One Secret Service officer was shot but was wearing a vest and is okay.

Suspect

  • Identified as Cole Tomas Allen, 31, from Torrance, California (Los Angeles area).
  • He was a part-time teacher and game developer.
  • He was a guest at the hotel (not a random intruder).
  • Described by officials and Trump as a “lone wolf” — no evidence of accomplices so far.
  • He was apprehended quickly, not shot, and taken into custody. He faces multiple charges.

Current Status (as of April 26)

  • Investigation ongoing by Secret Service, FBI, D.C. police, etc.
  • Trump later spoke publicly, praised the Secret Service response, and said the incident shows the need for better security infrastructure.
  • The event was disrupted but the shooter did not reach the main ballroom where most high-profile guests were seated.

My follow up question:
A in terms of his strategy and motives would be good. As a game developer he must have known how shitty his plan was. Makes you wonder how good his games are…

Grok: Yes, you’re right — his plan was extremely poorly executed and unrealistic.

Current Status on Motive & Strategy (as of April 26, 2026) No public motive yet. Authorities (FBI, Secret Service, D.C. police) say they are still investigating and have not released a manifesto, political statement, or clear ideological driver.
He made some vague reference to targeting administration officials, but it wasn’t specific, according to law enforcement sources.
Officials are treating him as a lone wolf with no known accomplices.
He had booked a room at the Washington Hilton weeks earlier (early April), so there was some basic planning. He then armed himself with a shotgun, handgun, and multiple knives and tried to rush a security checkpoint near the ballroom.

His “strategy” appears to have been a suicidal frontal charge straight at armed Secret Service agents and metal detectors — basically sprinting through security while opening fire. Video released by Trump shows him dashing past the checkpoint before being quickly stopped.It was a very low-success-probability attack. As you noted, even a game developer should have understood how bad the odds were against layered Secret Service protection at a high-profile event like this.

Background on Cole Tomas Allen31 years old, from Torrance, CA (Los Angeles area).
Highly educated: Caltech bachelor’s in mechanical engineering (2017) + master’s in computer science (2025).
Part-time teacher/tutor (named “Teacher of the Month” recently) and indie game developer.
His main known game: Bohrdom — a niche, non-violent asymmetrical fighting game based on atomic/chemistry themes. It’s sold on Steam for cheap and sounds very indie/experimental rather than a big commercial title.

No criminal record or prior law enforcement contact reported so far. People who knew him (former classmates, etc.) described him as intelligent and stable.

Motive

  • He told investigators he was targeting Trump administration officials. (Reported by CBS News and multiple outlets citing law enforcement sources.)
  • No full manifesto or detailed ideological explanation has been released yet.
  • He appears to have been a Kamala Harris donor in the past (according to some reports digging into campaign finance records).
  • Officials still describe the motive as unclear / under active investigation. No confirmed links to larger groups, foreign actors, or specific events like the Iran situation (Trump himself downplayed that angle).

It looks like a politically motivated lone-wolf attack against the current administration, but investigators are still going through his devices, room at the Hilton, and background for a clearer picture.

Strategy / Plan

You’re spot on — it was shockingly bad.

  • He booked a room at the Washington Hilton weeks in advance (some planning).
  • Then he simply ran straight at a security checkpoint near the ballroom with a shotgun, handgun, and knives, opening fire.
  • This was basically a suicide charge against layered Secret Service + metal detectors + armed officers. He never got close to the main ballroom where Trump, Vance, etc., were seated.

Even for an indie game developer, this shows zero tactical thinking — no stealth, no real attempt to bypass security, no escape plan. It feels more like a desperate symbolic act than a serious assassination attempt.

His indie game Bohrdom (a quirky, non-violent physics/chemistry-themed fighting game) has now gone somewhat viral on Steam due to the news, mostly from curious people and review-bombing.<

It may be worth looking into his game a little more to see what the disparity, if any, there is between his capabilities to understand stratagems and tactics and his ability to execute them.

Meanwhile the people of the United State who do not want a major street level civil war should heave a great sigh of relief that this plot, like many before it, did no

Glenn Beck on the state of Canadian ‘Democracy’

Every word he says is accurate as far as we can recall. If anyone finds an error please post it in the comments.

RFK Jr. offered a few words on Canada’s MAiD program as well.

Although the following thing seems relatively trivial, it goes to the deracination of Canadian history and culture.

Some of you might have seen photos in the banner of a number of guards in front of the Governor General’s estates in Ottawa taken a couple of years ago at a Changing of the Guard ceremony. It used to take place every and all summer with some frequency. It did not happen last year at it appears that it will not this year, as the little guard huts placed in front of the GG gates are no longer there.

The banner photos show the traditional Bear Skin tall hats (now synthetic) the guards wear and the bright red tunics and black pants they wore as well as some with a Scottish military Kilt on other guards.

We will check if this still takes place downtown, but even that ceremony, the main one, was scaled back dramatically last time we checked.

We as humans communicate mostly via conventions. In other words, we decide what a word means by what we, as a culture want it to mean, then fix the term as a convention via a dictionary

or other means so we can express what we want to each other and be understood. It’s a group process more or less but based on what we want expressions, words, concepts and taxonomy to mean.

Dialectics is the imposition of meaning on existing terms for a political outcome which is destructive to what we all consider meaning. It is a complete hijacking of Meaning.

This also applies to taxonomy. The most underrated aspect of epistemology. Of how we see ourselves. Of how we understand the world, via categories. Via labels.

Dialectical taxonomy is what forces us to change everything we think about sexuality and accept political sexuality such as the Trans-movement.

Or somehow convincing everyone that the German National Socialist Worker’s Party is somehow “far right wing”, which may be the most masterful dialectical con of the 20th century.

This deserves a proper essay. But I just want to get the thought out there.

Imposing, forcing meaning on us. Changing terms to mean what a group of tyrants what us to think they mean as opposed to what they do mean and more or less always have meant.

Making words mean something other than what we meant them to mean, then banning or criminalizing them because of their imputed meaning, even though they were good, useful terms that helped hold our culture together.

Attacking us for using perfectly good words with important meanings, then telling us what we meant by what we said, then cancelling us for it in the pre-revolutionary stage, and now in the UK outright arrest you now that the revolution is all but complete.

That is dialectics.

The modus of Canadian state operations

Posted on by

Glenn Beck on the story that should have dominated all Canadian media for a year or more till it was resolved:

Flash forward to today, April 23rd, 2026:

Sorry for the stupid title. I don’t want to say “democracy” because Canada is becoming a perfect example of a democracy, just not a republic. But people would say we are not a republic. Glenn Beck’s description, what is needed to be a free country is probably the simplest language. But the videos speak for themselves. How Canada actually functions, both in terms of individualism, and how well the public is represented in the machinery of government. Which is to say it isn’t.

Ontario:

Ford government passes budget that lets premier and ministers keep office records secret

The Ford government has passed a spring budget that includes provisions to let the premier and his cabinet ministers keep all their office records secret.

The spring budget changes Freedom of Information laws retroactively as well, meaning Premier Doug Ford would no longer have to comply with a court order to release his cellphone records.

The government used its majority to fast-track the bill and skip public hearings.

The FOI changes were first announced back in March and followed the loss of a court battle over access to Ford’s phone records.

The premier regularly gives out his personal cellphone number to the public and uses the device to conduct government business.

A court ruled in January that Ford must release logs of government-related calls made on his cellphone to comply with a Freedom of Information Request filed by Global News and supported by the Information and Privacy Commissioner.

 

Multifaith, sophistry and Islamic dialectics

Posted on by

Please read this article at RAIR which well details the various logical fallacies both the Catholic and Jewish representatives in this video use to deflect from the reality of Islam.

The Jewish person may be indulging in a whole new kind of sophistry. A variant of stolen valour, but in this case, misappropriated victimhood. Instead of taking honour from others he has not earned, he is loaning Jewish historical victimhood to a Muslim elected Texas State representative. An astonishing thing considering during the Nazi Holocaust or any of the Soviet pogroms etc. there were likely few to no elected Jewish representatives in the German regime. But also, as the article states, a significant fraction of deadly antisemitism historically and today, comes from Muslims. SPLC funded hate groups not withstanding.

 

On Mark Carney, The Communist Chinese state, and former diplomat, Hungarian Canadian, Michael Kovrig’s deep concerns for Canada’s future

Posted on by

Before even watching this video, please go over to RAIR Foundation and read the fundamentals of this situation. A man who was a prisoner of the Communist Chinese due to arbitrary arrest, as a Canadian Diplomat! was purely retaliatory for putting the daughter of a Chinese military general and owner of Huawei under house arrest for a while.

In the person of Mr. Kovrig, we have a rare combination of understanding at the strategic level, diplomatic experience in both good and bad ways, (as a prisoner in China) and as we see in this video below, also an understanding of the philosophical threat that China presents.

“The critical thing to understand […] is that Western countries, particularly democracies have policies and plans. (the) Chinese Communist Party has narratives. And the narrative it is trying to build is of inevitable preeminence and centrality in shaping both its region and ultimately world order.”

That, is the New. World. Order that Carney is proud of joining.

The Indictments against the SPLC is every bit as much an indictment of Canada

Posted on by

UPDATE: RAIR Foundation has a lot more on this story!

For those who don’t yet know, the dialectical enemy propaganda organization, the Southern Poverty Law Centre, has been formally indicted for fraud. They collected money from .. I am trying to find an adjective that is not also a pejorative in this case, let’s go with ‘concerned citizens’ to stop “extremism and hate” while in fact literally funding the Ku Klux Klan. According to FOX, they were also funding “National Socialists movement”. In other words, freaking Nazis.

Having followed these communist SOBs for many years now, we have done the odd article including secret video released of one of their meetings where they admit the real objective. To destroy classical America.

Tucker Carlson even did a good segment on them before he kinda… effectively… you know…

In 2018, the John Birch society did a video exposing the SPLC for what it really did. Attack any non-communist group or any Conservative group or any group that was a threat to the Islamo-communist plans for the United States using the now overly familiar dialectical labels of “hate” “intolerance” etc. ad inf.

Below, a video from 2018 by a Christian group that had their event cancelled because of pressure from the SPLC. Please note who did the agitation to shut them down, and who the SPLC was siding with:

So in the US, The SPLC was partnered with ANTIFA, and CAIR, and in Canada, the SPLC North, CAHN, is partnered with CAIR Canada, or the NCCM.

That is something we at VTB and others have repeated about them for years and years.

But The United States has now actually formally pressed charges against them. The joy one should feel, especially perhaps if one is from the left as the left represents itself, is enormous. But as a Canadian I am reminded of something I read back in the 80s. I have no idea if it is true exactly, but I know in principle it is.

“At any given time, there are over 100 elected representatives in jail in the United States.”

I remember reflecting that it is interesting that this is a badge of great honour for America. In Canada, no elected representative ever goes to jail for anything at all. This doesn’t mean none of our reps are criminal. It means we do not have anything like a republic. There is no equality before the law. There is nothing in Canada even approximating a republic. What Canada has instead of equality, is sanctimony. And that is not a substitute.

Canada has its own version of the SPLC. It is headed by an odious fellow named Bernie Farber. He in fact claimed that Neo-Nazi literature was found at the Freedom Convoy. A narrative that was widely amplified by the main state propaganda network, Comrades before Citizens, better known as the CBC.

In fact the pamphlet in question was from a years older march in Florida.

Here are some of the connections between the SPLC and the Canadian Anti-Hate network:

Confirmed Connections Direct Funding:

The SPLC provided $25,000 as seed/start-up funding to help establish the Canadian Anti-Hate Network. This has been reported by Ezra Levant (Rebel News) and others, and has not been credibly disputed by CAHN.

Partnership / Modeling: Multiple sources describe CAHN as being modeled after the SPLC and acting as its Canadian counterpart or “partner.” The Federalist (2019) explicitly referred to CAHN as an “Anti-Hate Southern Poverty Law Center Partner.”

Ideological and Operational Alignment: Bernie Farber (founding chair of CAHN) and the SPLC have collaborated for years on “hate group” monitoring, reporting, and public advocacy. Farber has been quoted by the SPLC and has appeared in joint or aligned efforts against what both organizations label as “far-right” or “hate” groups in North America.

Shared Tactics: Both organizations use similar methodologies — publishing “hate maps,” monitoring individuals and groups they define as extremist, and advocating for deplatforming, funding cuts, and legal pressure against their targets.

Background on the People/OrganizationsBernie Farber:

Former CEO of the Canadian Jewish Congress, now founding chair emeritus of CAHN. He is a prominent Canadian Jewish activist who has long focused on fighting antisemitism and far-right extremism. Critics (especially on the right) accuse him and CAHN of being overly broad in their definition of “hate,” often targeting conservative Christians, critics of mass immigration, and opponents of certain Islamist ideologies.

In fact, CAIR Canada, now called NCCM (National Council of Canadian Muslims) hired or asked Farber to give a presentation at Ottawa City Hall on Islamophobia several years ago. Something Farber is curiously worried about above and beyond antisemitism, except where antisemitism is a useful device to devalue Conservative groups the AHN targets.

Canadian Anti-Hate Network (CAHN): Founded in 2018 in Toronto. It monitors and reports on what it considers far-right and hate groups in Canada. It receives some federal Canadian government funding and has been controversial for its aggressive stance against those it calls, “right-wing figures and organizations”.
Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC): The well-known U.S.-based organization famous (and controversial) for its “Hate Map” and lawsuits against extremist groups. It has faced significant criticism and legal setbacks in recent years for its expansive labeling practices.

Summary of the RelationshipThe SPLC and CAHN/Bernie Farber have a documented financial, ideological, and operational relationship. The SPLC helped fund CAHN’s creation, and the two groups function as aligned organizations with overlapping goals and tactics in the “anti-hate” space.

It is a very safe bet that no similar indictments will be levelled against the Canadian Antti-Hate network. Like elected reps in Canada, they are above the law, especially if they are working against Classical Canada. And the CAHN most certainly does.

For those who have not seen Michael Hansen’s excellent film, Killing Canada, banned from the Ottawa Public Library, there is also a very good and well researched segment on the CAHN that should be seen. Below is the whole movie. Perhaps later I’ll excerpt that section. But the whole film is well worth the time. It was filmed shortly before the Communist Revolution of 2020.

The Brilliant German Substack writer, Eugyppius also has an article on these indictments. You can read it here.

In a comment on this post, I was reminded that a fine group of young patriots, who were in fact very much classical liberals, were destroyed and made illegal by the Canadian parliament BY UNANIMOUS vote, called the Proud Boys. They are well featured in the Hanson movie above, including interviews with the leadership in Ottawa. All of the impetus to do this to them came from the CAHN. All of it was lies. Again, this is as much an indictment of the Canadian “Conservative” party as it is the Liberals, as one expects this from the Liberals.

At no point did the Parliament of Canada attempt to make ANTIFA a terrorist group as they did the Proud boys, even though ANTIFA is in fact a terrorist group by any rational definition, and the Proud Boys merely defended Canadians from ANTIFA.

The details:

The Parliamentary Motion (January 26, 2021)
The Canadian House of Commons passed a non-binding motion calling on the government to designate the Proud Boys as a terrorist entity.
This motion was passed unanimously by unanimous consent (no recorded vote needed, as no one objected).
The Actual Designation (February 3, 2021)
The final decision to add the Proud Boys to Canada’s list of terrorist entities was made by the federal government(specifically Public Safety Minister Bill Blair under the Trudeau government), not by a parliamentary vote.
This was an executive action under the Criminal Code, not a vote in Parliament.
There was no parliamentary vote on the actual listing itself.
So while the symbolic motion in the House of Commons was unanimous, the legal designation of the Proud Boys as a terrorist entity was a government decision, not a parliamentary vote requiring unanimity.

Once again we see that the Conservative Party of Canada is a Potemkin veneer of Canadian values and more a lubricant to the communist revolution than an opponent of it.

ADDENDUM: 

This site operates more at the philosophical level of the communist/Islamic revolution which is obliterating Western Civilization. Politics, culture, law are all down stream from philosophy. Understanding the philosophy of the attack is to understand what is an attack and develop tactics, both individually and collectively against them. The attack comes entirely (so far) in the form of Dialectics. To understand dialectics, watch and read everything you can by Maj. (Ret.) Stephen Coughlin.

Here is a repost of the simplest explanation, or at least the shortest one, we have been able to think of so far (Placed here by request)

We as humans communicate mostly via conventions. In other words, we decide what a word means by what we, as a culture want it to mean, then fix the term as a convention via a dictionary

or other means so we can express what we want to each other and be understood. It’s a group process more or less but based on what we want expressions, words, concepts and taxonomy to mean.

Dialectics is the imposition of meaning on existing terms for a political outcome which is destructive to what we all consider meaning. It is a complete hijacking of Meaning.

This also applies to taxonomy. The most underrated aspect of epistemology. Of how we see ourselves. Of how we understand the world, via categories. Via labels.

Dialectical taxonomy is what forces us to change everything we think about sexuality and accept political sexuality such as the Trans-movement.

Or somehow convincing everyone that the German National Socialist Worker’s Party is somehow “far right wing”, which may be the most masterful dialectical con of the 20th century.

This deserves a proper essay. But I just want to get the thought out there.

Imposing, forcing meaning on us. Changing terms to mean what a group of tyrants what us to think they mean as opposed to what they do mean and more or less always have meant.

Making words mean something other than what we meant them to mean, then banning or criminalizing them because of their imputed meaning, even though they were good, useful terms that helped hold our culture together.

Attacking us for using perfectly good words with important meanings, then telling us what we meant by what we said, then cancelling us for it in the pre-revolutionary stage, and now in the UK outright arrest you now that the revolution is all but complete.

That is dialectics.

1. Mass shooting at the Pyramid of the Moon in Mexico: When seconds count, the police are just “10 to 15 minutes away”

That’s the only point of this story. Its CTV so watch your blood pressure for all the salt you need when reading. But keep the title above in mind if you favour the Canadian state plan to disarm everyone.

2. The switch of Great Britain into a totalitarian police state must not be dismissed. Much like once Texas is Islamic, the rest of the US will fall like dominoes, once the US is Commu-slamic then so goes the commonwealth.

3. Canada: Former CIA Analyst Rebukes Senator Woo’s Attempt to Discredit the Study That Has Now Captured Woo’s Own Group as Its 576th United Front-Linked Organization in Canada

OTTAWA — A former Central Intelligence Agency analyst whose Washington think tank documented a swarm of Chinese Communist Party-linked community organizations across Western democracies — and identified Canada as the most heavily penetrated per capita — told Parliament that a sitting Canadian senator’s effort to discredit the research amounted to “a kind of laziness,” after that senator’s own newly founded advocacy group was identified by the same researchers as the 576th United Front-linked organization in Canada.

4. Canada: The destruction of all industry:

5. “Schizophrenic” Muslim behind Toronto army recruiting centre knife attack approved for Mecca pilgrimage. Ayanle Ali also plans to fly to Somalia to meet a potential bride brokered by his father

A man found not criminally responsible on three counts of attempted murder for a March 2016 knife attack at a Canadian Forces Recruiting Centre in Toronto has been granted a three-week travel pass for Saudi Arabia and Somalia, despite the fact that he “continues to pose a significant threat to public safety.”

Ayanle Hassan Ali, who is Muslim, plans to go on a pilgrimage to Mecca with his father and meet a potential bride his dad found for him in Somalia. […]

Ali’s doctor testified that his patient’s “faith and religious beliefs continue to be very important to him, and he attends his mosque weekly, and he prays five times daily,” according to a recent decision from the independent tribunal that regularly reviews the status of individuals found not criminally responsible due to mental disorder.

“He and his father have planned for a religious ritual of Umrah pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Mr. Ali is studying to memorize the Koran and attends the mosque by his father’s house daily to meet with his teacher. He is hopeful that his tutor may assist him in securing a volunteer position at a local school to tutor in math or French.”

A few thoughts and hypotheticals about Canada and its immediate future.

Let’s start with some factual things:

From Peter Foster’s article about Mark Carney, with quotes drawn from carney’s own book, Values.

In his book Value(s): Building a Better World for All, Mark Carney, former governor both of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, claims that western society is morally rotten, and that it has been corrupted by capitalism, which has brought about a “climate emergency” that threatens life on earth. This, he claims, requires rigid controls on personal freedom, industry and corporate funding. […]

Carney draws inspiration from, among others, Marx, Engels and Lenin, but the agenda he promotes differs from Marxism in two key respects. First, the private sector is not to be expropriated but made a “partner” in reshaping the economy and society. Second, it does not make a promise to make the lives of ordinary people better, but worse. Carney’s Brave New World will be one of severely constrained choice, less flying, less meat, more inconvenience and more poverty: “Assets will be stranded, used gasoline powered cars will be unsaleable, inefficient properties will be unrentable,” he promises.

That’s just the opening act. Keep Carney’s own words in mind. We’ll come back to them.

The other day having dinner with some old friends who live abroad, I was asked questions about what is taking place here in Canada. Eventually, after some discussion about how state policies are destroying both individual rights and prosperity in Canada, the inevitable question of “why would they do that?” was asked.

Having had more time to think about it, I want to take a shot at a better answer than I had at the time. But frankly, the why really only matters if you are trying to convince someone that the thing in question is actually happening in terms they can understand. And that is neigh impossible. The frame of reference of those doing the destruction is fundamentally different from those of us raised in a classical, Socratic, Aristotelian West.

The why in practical terms doesn’t really matter. Quite often we cannot understand the why of things without a great deal of effort, because the motives of alien systems of thought or ethics will not make sense to us, and so we will dismiss the events themselves since the motives don’t make sense to us.

“I don’t believe they would do that because no one would want that result”. Is what you get if you try and explain what is actually happening to the public.

Take for an example of a foreign system of thought, Islam. Islam holds it as central dogma that they have to murder Jewish people, destroy civilization and replace it with sharia law, Understanding why means reading thick heavy books by people like Andrew Bostom, which not nearly enough people do. Reading the Koran is not enough because most Christians or Jews who read the Koran will think its as interpretable a book as their own canon. They will read it in their own context. It isn’t of course anything like other religions. It’s a set of instructions, not an interpretation of history or any kind of allegory. It is literal instruction.

All that is needed to be understood, is that Islam is determined to kill Jewish people and or disenfranchise them wherever possible, and then everyone else who isn’t Muslim, and eventually, everyone who isn’t Muslim enough. The why of it is really trivial in terms of planning a response. In fact will prevent an effective response because they why of it will distract from the facts of it.

Israel got badly wounded on October 7th a few years ago for precisely this reason. They lapsed into a comfortable mode of thought that Gaza “just wanted the same things we all want”. Peace and prosperity etc. etc. A better life for their  children. Islam doesn’t value life. In Islam, religion is not a part of life, life is a part of religion. That isn’t me saying it. That is Sam Solomon, the former Islamic jurist. Life itself is a flash in the pan compared to an eternity after life, which in order to avoid hellfire, you must behave as Islam instructs. But again, I am deflecting to the WHY of it. (It is also noteworthy that Carney is importing a massive amount of Muslims and subsidizing their belief system, and giving them far, far less criminal punishment than legacy Canadians for serious crimes like rape and assault etc. Islam is a major destructive force in Canada and the West in general. So beyond a mere example of a different system of thought resulting in destructive behaviour, it is also an example of Carney’s policies to destroy classical Canada.)

And again, those who are unable to fathom the thinking of Islam and therefore understand the why of it, will dismiss the what of it.

-Actions are downstream from philosophy. Philosophy determines all that we do and how we act-

Most people are not able to understand a set of axioms they do not themselves hold. But they should be able to understand that actions signal intent.

The same problem arises when discussing communism. When you point out that communist policies reliably produce suffering and scarcity, the instinctive Western response is: “Cui bono?” — Who benefits? Why would anyone want to destroy prosperity?
But this question assumes a Western frame of reference. One in which leaders are supposed to seek the flourishing of their own people. Communism operates on an entirely different set of axioms. As Stephen Coughlin has documented at length, Lenin, Mao, and others did not “do communism wrong.” They did it exactly as intended.

In 1984, it explains that the purpose of war was to destroy the output of human productivity. Not to win or lose any particular battle or strategic objective. But to destroy all the stuff we create in order to impoverish the people. Perhaps that is to make sure they are so worried about meeting their most basic needs that the concept of revolution, of personal liberty is a great luxury for them.

Inner party members had a few more necessities which appeared as luxuries compared to the common folk in Orwell’s 1984. Enough to make them loyal party members, but not enough to allow them the luxury of political thought. Maybe that is one of the purposes of the destruction of wealth. But communist thought is dialectical thought, not Socratic. Dialectics itself is merely polysyllabic word for destruction.

Canada is doing several interesting things simultaneously. All of which have been documented on this site by authoritative sources. Top constitutional lawyers for example, and even main stream media sources.

One is that Canada is spending an undisclosed amount of billions to import, house and feed a vast number of migrants, which will, according to the century initiative who’s plan this is, (again all of this has been VERY well documented repeatedly on this site) to outnumber legacy Canadians by 3:1 more or less, and depending how you define legacy Canadians.

Canada is expropriating vast amounts of farm land to build housing for these immigrants, and now is expropriating and destroying even more farm land to build a redundant and pointless rail system no one wants.

(It is our prediction that very little of the new high speed rail will ever be built, but the expropriations, reduction in property rights already being passed into law to build it, as well as the funds needed to build it will still be taken/printed and the money used to import and feed more people who have no stake in Canadian culture or well being)

So we have these two facts: 1. The amount of food needed to sustain people in Canada is growing at a very high rate of speed. 2. The ability to produce this food is being destroyed as quickly as possible. 3. The logical, obvious and inevitable result is less food per capita. And looking at a teleological analysis, which is the only way to look at events today, this must be the actual purpose of these policies, because it is the obvious and inevitable result of them. Maybe go back to the quotes from Carney’s book above and see if that helps make it clear.

Canada, as we see from some of the items in this post, is dismantling its trade relationship with the United states as quickly as it can. That trade relationship defines our prosperity. meanwhile we have created a new “strategic-partnership” with the Chinese Communist party, and are trying to integrate with the European Union, which, to paraphrase CNN ‘Is the white face of Chinese Communism’.

In one video here in this post it is stated categorically that a foundational industry, one which is a requirement for all other forms of manufacturing has been rendered impossible to continue to exist in Canada. Again, teleology dictates that this must be the only purpose of the attack on the tool and die trade. I guess the collapse of Canadian industry due to the policies generated by the ‘Climate crisis’ did not destroy enough industries with enough speed to satisfy the Bilderberg/Carneyite,WEFers.

Hanlon’s Razor, that one should never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence, is a dialectical weapon of mass distraction. The truth, more often than not, is the opposite. Never let evil people off the hook for brutal acts of destruction and suffering with the excuse of feeble mindedness. These people are brilliant. And when not brilliant, at least bright enough to know what their intent is, or at the very least what the inevitable result of their policies are.

And most importantly, as has been repeated many times by Diana West and so many more excellent thinkers and analysts, “With the left, the point is never the point. The Revolution is always the point”.

In other words, what they say they do a thing for, is never what it is for. What the results are of the thing is always what thing was for. And that result will always be bad for the general public.
